GroupVerified bookingLast week5/5An incredible experience. The Royal Palace is stunning, and the guided tour of the Royal Kitchen was one of my favorite parts because it lets you discover a little-known side of history. The guide made the tour very enjoyable, and we learned so many interesting facts. One tip: arrive early. The time shown on the app is for the start of the guided tour of the Royal Kitchen, not for entering the Palace. It’s important to arrive a few minutes early so that, when the time comes, you’re already inside and ready to begin the tour. I highly recommend it if you’re visiting Madrid!SShameka D

Begin your tour with a stroll through the Plaza de la Ameria. Besides catching incredible views of the surrounding countryside, you can also appreciate the Baroque architecture of the palace from the courtyard. Information points are located in various rooms inside the palace to help visitors better understand the exhibits. If you are an art-lover, you will find a plethora of famous works by artists such as Francisco de Goya and Caravaggio. Art exhibitions are also often held inside the palace.
Learn more about all the major attractions in the palace, from a Spanish-speaking guide, such as the Hall of Columns, where Spain signed the agreement to enter the European Union. The Royal Armoury and the Grand Staircase are also fascinating sights. The 2000-square meter Royal Kitchen houses a wealth of preparation rooms and cooking equipment that are over 200 years old.
